Comments

• Add how Neil Cross and the others relate to the show (are they producers, writers? etc).
  • Cross is the head writer of the seventh series. Unfortunately this isn't American television where episodes are written by the creators or producers, it's just written by writers, produced by producers and directed by directors. But I did add note that Cross was head writer.
• In the episode, Sir Harry Pearce (Peter Firth) is determined to carry out his revenge on FSB head of operation in London Arkady Kachimov (Stuart Wilson), who in the previous episode purposely withheld intelligence that caused the death of Adam Carter. Please note I have not watched the show before, but the bolded section looks odd. Maybe change to London's FSB head of operation (or something similar).
  • Done.
• Eight hour following the death... Eight hours? Or is this normal British-speak? :p
  • Done. And no, this is not normal British-speak :)
• the Russians are planning a cyber attack against Britain by breaking into a submarine communications cable and shut down every computer system in the country. Should say "and shutting down" or "to shut down".
  • Done.
• The production section could be longer, but I understand it is often difficult to locate usable information.
  • I'm afraid that's all I can find.
• E4 disambiguation link needs to be fixed.
  • Done.
• Perhaps add one more review of the episode (I think the review section should always be longer than the one on ratings, but that's just my rule of thumb).
  • Again, what is present was all I could find. Most of the reviews out there are previews before the episode airs, and only the odd one has anything useful about what the authors think. -- Matthew RD 21:19, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

• Thank you for the quick replies. Article looks good to go. Pass for GA. Nice work, Ruby2010 talk 22:41, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Overall the article looks good. Just edit accordingly to my suggestions, and let me know when you are done. In the meantime, the review will be placed on hold for seven days. Thanks, Ruby2010 talk 19:37, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
